Built for the most demanding inspections.
Two Coast Inspections delivers specialized nondestructive testing and quality assurance services for defense, shipbuilding, and industrial applications nationwide.
About Two Coast Inspections
One inspection partner across many industries.
Founded in 2019, Two Coast Inspections provides nondestructive testing, welding inspection, and NDT Level III services to customers across the United States.
We serve shipbuilding and defense, aerospace, power generation, oil and gas, manufacturing, and infrastructure — with inspection programs ranging from a few technical specialists to large teams working across multiple shifts. Phased array UT and other advanced methods sit alongside the conventional NDT that most fabrication depends on.

Capabilities
Advanced and conventional NDT, under one roof.
From phased array weld examination to alloy verification and thermography, matched to the material, the geometry, and the specification.
PAUT
Flagship capability
Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing
Electronically steered, multi-angle ultrasonic weld examination with sectorial imaging and encoded, recordable data.
Learn moreVT · MT · PT · UT
Conventional NDT
Visual, magnetic particle, liquid penetrant, and ultrasonic testing of welds and components.
Learn moreET
Eddy Current Testing
Electromagnetic detection of surface and near-surface cracks in conductive materials, often through coatings.
Learn morePMI
Positive Material Identification
On-site alloy verification by XRF or optical emission spectroscopy to confirm the right material is installed.
Learn moreIR
Infrared Thermography
Noncontact thermal imaging that finds abnormal heating, insulation loss, and near-surface anomalies.
Learn moreCWI · L III
Certified Welding Inspection & Level III Services
AWS Certified Welding Inspectors, procedure development, personnel qualification, and NDT consulting.
Learn moreFlagship Capability
Phased array ultrasonic testing.
PAUT steers the ultrasonic beam electronically through a range of angles, builds cross-sectional images of the weld, and records position-encoded data that can be reviewed long after the scan.
Typical applications
- Butt welds in plate and pipe
- Structural and pressure-boundary welds in shipbuilding, where specified
- Nozzle, branch, and other complex-geometry welds
- Volumetric examination in lieu of radiography, where the governing code permits
